Hi,
I have a ThinkPad workstation laptop (P50s) with an Nvidia GPU (Quadro M500M) and its standard Intel integrated GPU. I'm running NX11.
PROBLEM: I was modeling a structural frame and as soon as I added some hardware (nuts & bolts), the shading/surfacing went... I don't know what it is called, but the shaded surfaces aren't uniform. They are jagged and mix up nearby colors with nearby parts as if parts are overlapped, but they aren't (i.e. It's just one part.). Then I noticed the rest of the frame structure now also exhibits the issue. The file is not large (i.e. Only ~4Mb.).
WHAT I'VE TRIED:
1) I've played with all of the VISUAL PERFORMANCE SETTINGS in NX to no avail.
2) I looked at the Nvidia Control Panel and noticed that it was set to Integrated Graphics, so then I switched to HiPerf Nvidia, but that didn't help.
Pics of settings from Nvidia Control Panel...
3) Then I looked at the Windows Display Settings and noticed the displays are set using the Intel Integrated GPU even though I just selected Nvidia Quadro in previous action. See pics below...
Is there a name for this graphical condition?
Is it due to the Intel vs Nvidia GPU choosing?
How may I eliminate it so the viewing is better?
Thanks!
